Advent bazaar helps 21 students in Namibia
Women from Pfedelbach and the Jagst Valley implemented many creative ideas for Advent and held an Advent bazaar for the benefit of the Namibia Support Association. Many unique and hand-crafted works of art were offered to the general public in the old schoolhouse in Oberhöfen. Over coffee, mulled wine, punch, cake and Namibian bratwurst, many people from Pfedelbach and the surrounding area came to get into the Advent spirit and buy a few things for themselves or to give as gifts.
The women spent many hours crafting and preparing, all for people in need in Namibia. Everyone who ate, drank or bought something hand-made at the bazaar supported the various projects in Okombahe and Windhoek.
The net proceeds were overwhelming! With the €2100 we can support 21 students in need in the coming school year. For around €100 we can accommodate a young person in a student hostel for a year and also provide them with a new school uniform with shoes and a new school bag for lessons.
